THE EUROPEAN HOLSTEIN CHAMPIONSHIP
The European Championship Holstein & Red Holstein
Presentation
The European Championship is the most prestigious Holstein competition in Europe. It is organized every
3 years by one of the members of the European Holstein confederation (EHRC).
In 2019, the Walloon Region of Belgium will have the great privilege of being in charge of organizing this
championship. The next event will be held on 12 and 13 April 2019 in Libramont (Belgium), at the heart of
Europe.
Libramont is easily accessible from all the European capitals. Located in the center of the province of
Luxembourg, Libramont enjoys a strategic geographical position (close to motorways, main railways and
two airports). For more information, you can consult our website, in the section “Location & Access”
(www.holsteinlibramont2019.com).
Ambitions and goals of the competition
The European Championship Holstein & Red Holstein plays a major role in the promotion of Holstein
farms in Europe and around the world. It is the opportunity for the participating countries to present the results
of their work and their know-how under excellent working conditions.
Besides the competition, the championship is also the opportunity for the member countries of the EHRC and
their federation to share their knowledge, discuss issues and develop genetic progress and new working
practices.
For professionals, this event represents in general the knowledge and skills relating to Holsteins between the
members of the EHRC. The Holstein Championship is a logical part of the work undertaken by the European
Confederation and its Member States.

The Libramont Exhibition & Congress
To host the European Holstein & Red Holstein championship in the best conditions, the setting must be
worthy of the event.
Libramont Exhibition & Congress is a new facility for
meetings and exchange anchored in the midst of nature.
This innovative multifunctional complex can host all
types of events for 200 to 200.000 people (meetings,
incentives, exhibitions, congresses and events).
Location
Located in the heart of the Belgian Ardenne,
Libramont enjoys a strategic geographical
position. It is located close to motorways and
nationals (E411, E25, N4, and N89) and main-line
railways (Line 162 Brussels-Luxembourg) as well
as the two major airports of the country (Brussels-
Zaventem and Brussels-Charleroi). Our German,
French and Luxembourgish neighbours will find an
ideal destination which is both close but also
provides a change of scenery. It is therefore an
ideal geographical situation for the organisation of
a European event.

agricultural, forestry and agri-food fair is held every year at the end of July (220.000 visitors and 820

exhibition halls on 12.000 m² + 80.000 m² of outdoor facilities and parking for more than 3.000 vehicules.
